Inmates showering

by VegRN

Do you have rules for inmates showering at your facility as in do they have to shower a certain number of times a week?
At our state facilities we don't unless it is declared a health hazard then the inmate is required to shower.

I will have to check on this one. I know that in the lockdown units they are let out for an hour twice a week to shower, etc. Whether they shower or not I dont know.

The close security guys have 12 showers in their pods. They can shower whenever they want.

The max security guys are offered a shower everyday.
